The HandleBards are BACK — and this year they’re bringing not one, but two unforgettable performances in support of the Rock Mill Centre!
Pedaling from venue to venue with all of their set, props, and costumes strapped to the back of their bikes, the HandleBards are a four-strong troupe of actors spending the summer bringing environmentally sustainable Shakespeare to audiences across the UK.
Join them at High Lea Park, New Mills, for two brilliantly bonkers evenings of open-air theatre!
Macbeth on Sunday 19 July at 5.00pm
Forget the doom and gloom — this Macbeth is packed with mishaps, mayhem, and mirth in a hilariously high-octane production unlike anything you’ve seen before.
As You Like It on Friday 21 August at 6.30pm
Expect romance, comedy, music, and plenty of HandleBards magic under the summer sky.
Bring a picnic, gather your friends and family, and help raise funds for the Rock Mill Centre while enjoying two fantastic outdoor theatre experiences.
